Description
WO 2012/084843 PCT/EP20111/073267 1 GEL COMPOSITION COMPRISING LOW-METHOXY PECTIN TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to a gel composition for preparing a food product and to a 5 process for preparing a food product. In particular, the invention relates to a heat-reversible gel composition comprising pectin, specifically low-methoxy pectin, preferably amidated, as a gelling agent for preparing savoury food products. BACKGROUND 10 Concentrated food products such as bouillon or stock cubes have been known for many years. In the search for alternative product types having different characteristics and advantages over traditional food concentrates, food compositions concentrated in gel form have been developed. A number of such products are now known. They are typically based on the presence of a gelling agent or a combination of two or more gelling agents. 15 Those products based on a single hydrocolloid gelling agent usually do not exhibit all the characteristics needed for an easy to use food concentrate product. Thus, two component hydrocolloid based gel systems have been developed. These each have their characteristics which may make them suitable for some food applications, but not others. For example, WO 2007/068484, WO 2008/151850, WO 2008/151851 and WO 20 2008/151852 describe a combination of xanthan and various galactomannans (locust bean gum, tara gum, guar gum or cassia gum) as a gelling agent. Gelling temperature is typically around 60 0C, and the gel sets quickly during cooling. However, rapid gel setting on cooling can lead to an undesired texture when prepared by the consumer. Dissolution time for these gels is typically 2 to 3 minutes. 25 A combination of gelatin and starch is described in WO 2007/068402 and WO 2007/068483. The product dissolves in about 100 seconds, but the main problem with this combination is that a very high dosage of gelling agent is needed (greater than 10 %). Also, the presence of starch (3-6 % potato or corn) greatly increases the viscosity during processing due to starch gelatinisation. Furthermore, gelatin is not popular as a food 30 ingredient with those on a vegetarian diet. Pectins are traditionally used as a gelling agent for sweet products (e.g. jams). Low methoxy pectins, especially amidated, are known to produce heat-reversible gels. It is well known that gel formation of low-methoxy pectins is mainly induced by the presence of divalent cations, such as calcium ions. The calcium ions form junction zones between two 35 carboxyl groups of galacturonic acid located on two pectin molecules. When the pectin is amidated, gel formation is also induced by hydrogen bonding between amide groups. But little is known about the behaviour of pectin in the presence of high amounts of salt (NaCI).
2 Literature data suggests that monovalent ions, such as sodium ions, tend to screen the carboxyl groups on the pectin molecules. This prevents the formation of junction zones and therefore gel formation. In the case where a gel could still be formed via hydrophobic interactions, this type of gel is unlikely to be heat-reversible, meaning that the gel will not 5 melt when reheated. It has now been found that under certain processing conditions, it is possible to use low-methoxy pectin, especially low-methoxy amidated pectin, to form savoury products in a gel format. The use of pectin has certain desirable characteristics over known gel compositions. It has also been found that addition of xanthan to the composition further 0 improves the properties of the product and brings some surprising characteristics. Any discussion of the prior art throughout the specification should in no way be considered as an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of common general knowledge in the field. It is an object of the present invention to overcome or ameliorate at least one of the 5 disadvantages of the prior art, or to provide a useful alternative. An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a gel composition that at least goes part way to a preferred embodiment overcoming one or more of the above disadvantages of existing gel compositions or at least provides a useful alternative. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the description and the 0 claims, the words "comprise", "comprising", and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense as opposed to an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is to say, in the sense of "including, but not limited to".

Flavorings are included in the composition typically in the amount of 1 to 40 %, preferably 5 to 15 %. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the composition is adapted to be heat 5 reversible, meaning that it melts when reheated to temperatures above 70 0C and dissolves in less than 2 minutes when added to boiling water. The composition of the invention may be used to prepare any suitable food product, especially sauces, soups, stocks, bouillons or gravies. In a second aspect of the invention there is provided a process for preparing a 10 composition in the form of a gel for preparing a food product comprising the steps: a) mixing gelling agents including at least low-methoxy pectin, preferably low methoxy amidated pectin in water, b) heating at a temperature of at least 75 OC, preferably at least 80 OC c) adding the calcium source together with salt and flavourings and mixing, 15 d) heating at a temperature of at least 75 0C, preferably at least 80 OC to pasteurize, e) filling into containers, and f) cooling to room temperature in less than 30 minutes, preferably less than 15 minutes, to form the gel. 20 The process may further comprise making a premix of the gelling agents with maltodextrin or glucose syrup and/or starch. The process may also comprise adding fat after mixing of the gelling agents. In another aspect of the invention there is provided a use of the composition of the invention for preparing a food product, such as a sauce, soup, stock, soup base, bouillon or 25 gravy. DETAILED DESCRIPTION There is a need for a composition for preparing a food product having the texture of a gel and which is able to withstand high salt contents. The gel-forming composition should be 30 able to set and melt reversibly. The melting temperature should be in a range allowing the composition to melt easily during a standard heating step or to allow dilution of the gel composition in hot water. There is further a need for a gel composition for preparing a food product that is stable during transportation and storage, and shows a low syneresis during storage typically for a few weeks or even up to several months. 35 It has now been found that these benefits may be achieved at least in part by a gel composition for preparing a food product comprising: 30 to 70 % water, 10 to 25 % salt, and 0.6 to 7 % gelling agents, wherein the gelling agents comprise at least low-methoxy pectin, WO 20121084843 4 PCT/EP2011/073267 preferably low-methoxy amidated pectin. In addition the composition comprises calcium ions in the amount of 1.0 to 10 % (by weight of the pectin), which is equivalent to 10 to 100 mg calcium / g of pectin. The calcium may originate from other ingredients in the composition or from an added source of calcium, such as calcium chloride, calcium lactate, calcium citrate, 5 or a combination of both. Sequestering agents, such as sodium citrate, sodium pyrophosphate and sodium orthophosphate, may be added to control the availability of the calcium ions. In addition, the composition comprises 1 to 40 % of other ingredients typically encountered in savoury products such as flavourings (for example, flavoring agents, taste enhancing ingredients, herbs, spices, vegetable, meat and fish components in liquid or 10 powder form), lipids, and carbohydrates or mixtures thereof. All percentages are based on weight of the total composition. The term "gel", in the context of this invention, means a solid or semi-solid matrix formed by interaction with one or more polysaccharides and water, which is free standing over a time scale of at least a few minutes and which deforms partially in an elastic way 15 when submitted to a deformation force. The term "rupture strength" is used in reference to gel strength and relates to the deformation force needed to break the gel. The rupture strength of a gel should be at least 20 g, but preferably greater than 35 g, as measured using a Texture Analyser. The term "heat reversible" indicates a gelling agent composition that is liquid at 20 elevated temperatures, forms a gel during cooling to room temperature and melts again when reheated. "Salt" refers to any suitable alkali metal salt or mixture thereof. The salt used in the composition of this invention is typically, but not limited to, sodium chloride. For example, potassium chloride may be used or any low-sodium product having a taste impression of 25 sodium chloride may be used, as long as the taste in the end formulation is acceptable. The term "pectin" refers to polysaccharides generally having a backbone consisting of a linear polymer of galacturonic acid and some branches of neutral sugars. Commercial pectins are derived from a variety of fruits or vegetable sources, mainly apple and citrus fruits. The carboxyl groups of the polygalacturonic acid are partly esterified by methanol. 30 The ratio of methyl esterified galacturonic acid groups to total galacturonic acid groups is named degree of esterification. The term "low-methoxy pectin" refers to a type of pectin that has been partially de esterified. Typically the degree of esterification (DE) is below 50%. The term "low-methoxy amidated pectin" refers to a type of low-methoxy pectin in 35 which some of the methyl ester groups have been converted to amide groups. The degree of amidation (DA) is defined as the ratio of amidated galacturonic acid groups to total galacturonic acid groups. Typically the degree of amidation is below 25%. The term "low- WO 20121084843 5 PCT/EP2011/073267 methoxy pectin" is often instead referred to as "low esterified pectin", "low ester pectin", or "conventional pectin". The term "low-methoxy amidated pectin" may be referred to as "amidated pectin". Commercial pectins are often standardised with sugars. In the context of this invention, the concentration of pectin should be understood as the amount of pectin 5 included in the formulation, i.e. not as the amount of standardised pectin. The term "xanthan" is a hetero-polysaccharide of high molecular weight commonly used as a food thickening agent (for example, in salad dressings) and as a stabiliser (for example, in cosmetic products). Its main chain is constituted of glucose units and its side chain is a trisaccharide consisting of alpha-D-mannose which contains an acetyl group, beta 10 D-glucuronic acid, and a terminal beta-D-mannose unit linked with a pyruvate group. The term "flavourings", as used in this specification, includes flavouring agents, taste enhancing ingredients, herbs, spices, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, crustaceans or particulates thereof. The composition may comprise further ingredients selected from carbohydrates, 15 lipids, or mixtures thereof. The lipids may be provided by oils, creamer, vegetable or animal fats, cream and any traditional ingredients used in the manufacture of savoury food compositions. Carbohydrates may be provided by sugars, starches, flours, maltodextrins, glucose syrups etc. As used in this specification, the words "comprises", "comprising", and similar words, 20 are not to be interpreted in an exclusive or exhaustive sense. In other words, they are intended to mean "including, but not limited to". Further, any reference in this specification to prior art documents is not intended to be an admission that they are widely known or form part of the common general knowledge in the field. 25 The inventors of the present invention have surprisingly found that a heat reversible gel based on pectin can be formed in the presence of large amounts of salt. Further, the gelling temperature of the composition is unexpectedly lower than for similar known gel compositions. In addition, dissolution times of the gel when added to hot water are surprisingly much lower than for existing gel compositions despite having a comparable 30 melting temperature. It has also been found that combining xanthan with low-methoxy amidated pectin modulates the texture of the gel formed, bringing more elasticity and also reducing its syneresis. The concentration range of the gelling agent in the gel composition of the invention is 0.6 to 7 %, preferably 0.8 to 2.5 % (based on the total weight of the composition). 35 The gelling agents may comprise low-methoxy pectin only, preferably low-methoxy amidated pectin, or may additionally comprise xanthan or other agents. In the case where WO 20121084843 6 PCT/EP2011/073267 only pectin and xanthan are present, the ratio of pectin to xanthan is preferably in the range of 60:40 to 95:05, more preferably 70:30 to 95:05, and even more preferably 70:30 to 90:10. In addition to low-methoxy amidated pectin, starch can be added as a thickening agent or gelling agent, either in native or modified form. In addition to low-methoxy amidated 5 pectin, a thickener such as locust bean gum can be added. The amount of water in the gel composition is in the range 30 % to 70 %, preferably 40 % to 60 %, more preferably 45 % to 60 %. The amount of flavorings in the gel composition is in the range 1 to 40 %, preferably 5 to 15 %. 10 The amount of salt in the gel composition is in the range 10 to 25 %. When salt concentration increases, the dosage of the gelling agent has to be increased, typically at 25 % salt the minimum concentration of gelling agents required for gel formation is 0.9 %. The amount of calcium ions in the gel composition is in the range 1.0 to 10 % (by weight of the pectin). 15 The composition according to the invention may further comprise fat in an amount of 1 to 10 %, such as, for example, emulsified or dispersed oil and/or fat. Further, the composition can comprise up to 40 % of maltodextrins and/or glucose syrup. The invention further relates to a process for preparing the gel composition of the invention. 20 The process comprises the steps of heating water, adding the ingredients to the water and applying at least one additional heating step to the mixture during the process of adding the ingredients. In particular, the process preferably comprises the steps of heating water to 50 0C and making a premix of the hydrocolloids with glucose syrup or maltodextrins. The premix 25 containing the hydrocolloids is added to water under mixing and heated at a temperature of around 80 0C (at least 75 0C) to properly hydrate the gums. Additional dry ingredients premixed prior to addition, including salt, flavorings and the like, are then added. Any added calcium should be added together with the dry ingredients. Finally, the fat component is added and the complete composition is heated and pasteurized. The composition may then 30 be filled into suitable containers and cooled to room temperature in less than 30 minutes, ideally less than 15 minutes. The containers and consequently the cooled composition can have any possible shape, preferably the shape of a cube, pellet, sphere, egg-shape or the like. The resulting product is a gel composition being stable at room temperature and 35 melting when reheated to temperatures above 70 0C and dissolving when added to boiling water in less than 2 minutes, most preferably in less than 1 minute, with or without an additional heating step.
WO 20121084843 7 PCT/EP2011/073267 The invention further relates to the use of a gel composition for preparing a food product, such as a soup, sauce, bouillon, stock, soup base or gravy, by melting or diluting the composition in hot or boiling water. Typically, the amount of gel composition used would be 25-50 g/L of water, or 25-50 g/kg of, for example, rice or vegetables, if being used directly 5 with solid foods rather than added to water. The product of the invention has several advantages over known gel compositions. One advantage is that the gelling temperature is lower than known gel compositions, typically below 45 0C, also the gelling process during and after cooling is slow, especially when xanthan is present in the composition. Typically it takes several hours before the gel is 10 properly formed, for example 12-48 hours or even longer. In contrast, many known gel compositions form a gel as soon as the temperature is below 60-50 0C which can lead to a texture which is not desirable during consumption of the product. If the time between the food product preparation using the gel composition and the consumption is too long, the soup or sauce would form a gel texture again. The gel composition of the invention enables 15 maintenance of a non-gelled texture for product consumption. Another advantage is that when using pectin alone as the gelling agent, the viscosity during processing is lower than for known gel composition due to the low molecular weight of pectins. Another advantage is that the dissolution time when the product is added to hot water is much faster, typically less than 1 minute whereas known gel compositions dissolve 20 in 2-3 minutes. The clean label image of pectins compared with other known gelling agents used to prepare savoury concentrates is also a significant advantage for the gel compositions of this invention. 25 EXAMPLES The invention is further described with reference to the following examples. It will be appreciated that the invention as claimed is not intended to be limited in any way by these examples. 30 Example 1: savoury gel with low methoxy amidated pectin (DE = 31%, DA =19%) Ingredient Amount [%] Water 51.0 Salt 12.8 Glucose syrup 7.8 Chicken fat 5.6 Pectin 1.4 WO 20121084843 8 PCT/EP2011/073267 CaC1 2 0.33 Other ingredients up to 100 Syneresis is measured as the amount of separated water divided by the amount of separated water + gel weight.
